*4x because the effective cost of the Sapphire card is $250/yr after the $300 annual rebate on anything coded as travel.
I'm with you on this, I have the club card which sits in my dresser, and use my sapphire reserve to buy my personal flights. Math obviously changes if you don't have actual earned UA status.
